Description
This is not a standard tour from a tour operator that uses many guides that present standard content (easily found on your own with a short internet search): this exclusive experience presents an exclusive content, by a native guide and historical researcher, which allows you to understand Michelangelo's creative world in a broad and organic way (including the red thread that links David with the Sistine Chapel): through a logical discussion, understandable even to the youngest, you will be prepared for the final moment of the tour: the Michelangelo life message behind his work. The methodology of the speech provides an interactive approach that encourages question for a deeper understanding of the statue of David and Prisoners through metaphors and a broader look at Michelangelo’s body of work. The tour Begin examining David as the pinnacle of Michelangelo’s early work. Then you discover how the artist 'surpasses' David (the young style) with his Prisoners ( expression of his mature style), just a few meters away, created through the so-called “unfinished” way. Enjoy this easily understandable tour (but with a deeper message) as it is expressed with images and metaphors, making it comprehensible even for children. Participate in a unique perspective based on the Michelangelo's creation process: the red thread that binds Michelangelo's entire artistic work and then you'll discover the artistic and spiritual reason of the greatest artist of all time. MarioGesu is not olny a native guide of Florence but he is “famous” in his city also as actor performing the Divine Comedy by Dante in restaurant and city events. His tour is high-profile, aimed at couples, families with children and friends, but above all for those who want to live an exciting experience in the artistic heart and meanings of the great Michelangelo.Includes
